elec tion Ask these questions of 20 dif people In Ottawa and you will get 25 different answers Five people will change their minds In mid sentence My analysis or Is It Just an Intuitive feeling Is that we will get through 1973 without an election Now this definitive statement which like the bolt of lightning which strikes down liars may In Itself perpetrate an election just to prove me wrong I hod better back It up with a few persuasive comments There has been an Inclination to treat each hurdle that the government faces as being the obstacle to survival Remember the stories written by the pundits translate newspaper columnists excluding me prior to the Throne Speech and budget debate confidence motions and then It was the Unemployment ance overdraft bill Now Its the corporate tax cuts and the fast writeoffs that are the big hurdle If the government can lust survive this vote they will be In power for a long while so the stories went and still go Coalition government However a close examination of the conduct of the parties over the three months of parliament reveals some Interesting constants and some notable constants One obvious constant of course is the undying loyalty of the to the Liberal cause We have In Canada a coalition government whether the voters it or not The NDP seem bound to continue this support for the future no matter what the Issue nor what position government mlRht take on It Notable nonconstants are found In policy platforms of the liberals and the NDP today as compared with on which they fought the election last year witness for example the government adoption of a tax cut policy of Mr Stanflelds constant dollar proposal to combat inflation of the unemployment insurance administration and of change In the Immigration lows All for the better but hardly the basis on which they votes last year And the consistencies you guessed it the polldes of the good old nitpicking powerhungry Yep same as they were last fall Again whether the voters like it or not But come to think of it they liked it last fall they All of which leads me to think that we will not have an election In 1973 If you have a problem idea comment criticism or If you simply wish to get In touch with me please stop by or call my Hiding office at 32S HI Last 6440222 Mis in Mrs Mae of died March In St Raphael Nursing home Kitchen r was born in Erin township In
